α6000 new software is now available.

Shoot in 0.06 seconds with ultra-fast auto focus

The perfect moment, captured

Unlike many competitors, the α6000’s Fast Hybrid AF combines the strengths of both phase- and contrast-detection autofocus. With a class-leading 179 phase detection points (covering almost the entire image) and a high-speed contrast-detection function, the result is not only an impressive 11 fps burst mode, but also highly accurate movement tracking for both stills and video.

20% more sensitive

Compared with previous sensors of the same pixel count, the a6000’s sensor delivers 20% greater sensitivity—capturing more information especially in low-light situations.

Gapless on-chip lenses

Removing the gaps between the 24.3 million micro-lenses makes the entire chip surface photo reactive, and each micro-lens is angled for optimum efficiency and sensitivity.

Quality starts with the sensor

More area for more detailed images

The truth is simple: better images begin with bigger sensors, and the α6000 outclasses many cameras in its category. Its APS-C size sensor offers 1.6 times the area of 4/3 sensors, and 13 times that of the 1/2.3 sensors of typical compact digital cameras. The result is an outstanding level of quality in every image.

Detail-reproduction technology

To prevent problematic diffraction at a small aperture, optical filtering is applied to correct specific blurred image points—resulting in a detailed, ultra-sharp photograph.

World-class speed

With new sensor and autofocus technology, the powerful BIONZ X™ can process the data required to create the world’s fastest AF system, especially during movie recording.

Sharper details, faster AF

BIONZ X™ Processor

With three times the processing speed of earlier models, the new BIONZ X™ is able to accurately capture textures, reduce blurry details and even suppress visual noise to ensure sharp images. These advantages apply equally to still images or video.

Exmor™ CMOS sensor

Advanced processor

The BIONZ X™ image processor ensures images of the highest quality, and provides the muscle needed for ultra-fast AF.

Amazing shots in low light

The extremely high ISO range lets you shoot natural, nuanced photos in dim light or indoors without a flash.

Introducing ultra-fast auto focus

Capture everything from flying water droplets to fleeting smiles

An ultra-fast autofocus makes the α6000 one of the most versatile interchangeable lens cameras available. At a mere 0.06 seconds, you're assured of getting the perfect shot in any situation, from family events to sports and nature.

Never miss the perfect shot

Fast Hybrid AF

The advanced Fast Hybrid AF enables more scenes to be focused via phase-detection only (reducing reliance on the contrast-detection mode), delivering fast AF to capture your subject at the exact moment you intend.

Wider frame coverage

Ultra-precise 179 AF points for greater coverage.

More autofocus points mean a better chance of capturing a perfectly sharp image, and with a class-leading 179 AF points, the α6000 provides extensive frame coverage and continuous, precise location of your subject—no matter where in the frame they may be.

Focal plane phase detection AF points

Split-second and ultra-sharp

11 fps continuous shooting with AF tracking

Capturing an impressive 11 photos a second wouldn’t mean much if they were blurry. That’s where the α6000 excels; you get a very high frames-per-second (fps) rate while the superior AF tracking ensures your selected subject is crisp and clear.

11 frames per second

Video phase detection

Smooth AF enhances your movies

The α6000’s impressive AF capabilities are not just limited to still photos. It uses the same phase-detection priority to ensure fast focusing and smooth tracking to give a professional polish to your most demanding video projects.
